Songwriters, visuals artists, poets, and creative artists of all disciplines, St. Luke's Church of Copley, Ohio is inviting you to a very special NE Ohio United Adoration retreat designed for you! We believe the Lord has picked this time together for us to encounter Him while we create, collaborate, receive encouragement and build community with other artists.
The retreat will focus on each retreat participant experiencing a Holy Spirit led creative process. During the retreat, we will have extended time to create, collaborate with one another, pray together, reflect on scripture, share meals, and worship God in community.
This retreat will also include some short Biblical teachings from Rev. Dave Frincke about creativity and the arts that will help inform and inspire your creative process.
We believe that when we gather to worship and create, the Holy Spirit does deep work in our souls, so we intentionally leave time during the retreat for the Holy Spirit to minister to us.
Artists of all ages and artistic experience levels are welcome. Please bring your own instruments and artistic materials if possible.
